hi!

So you have a home group - time to start inviting someone
(better same sex and all that ) to have a coffee after the meeting.
Possibly at your frist meeting you were given a call list?
use it.

That's how many people start.

If that's too much at first -
be the volunteer to stay and clean up
or come early and help open.

I liked the suggestion to start posting here more often!

After some time - you might see that
what you're perceiving as lonlieness right now
is just a hole where the booze used to be.

There's people all around you, more than likely.
They're just hidden in the fog right now.

Stay sober so they can appear!
